New! Bought a Porsche 914 with a 13b in it

[Max777]

I just bought this 1974 Porsche 914 with a 13b conversion done. I own 5 914's one with a v8 conversion. This is my first experience with a rotary motor. It overheated & doesn't run from what I was told. Motor was built by Racing Beat in Anaheim CA in the late 90's. I bought the car because it is in great shape despite the motor problem. I was told the motor put out 220hp. Having no experience with Rotary motors I just figured to do a suby conversion into the car. The more I look at it I want to keep it as is. I am trying to find someone closer to Corvallis Oregon who know's these motor's & can help me figure what direction I need to take. Not sure with the overheating how much damage there is. I appreciatte any insight on this. Any shops in my area speciallizing in rotaries would be great. Thanks for your help -Jamie
